ITunes 11.2.2.3 Wifi Sync - SyncServer.exe*32 issue

I have had issues with wifi sync on iTunes for a while but have finally made some head way and need some help. When I open iTunes my device does not show up, but if I go to Windows Task Manager and kill SyncServer*32.exe and then open iTunes then it works fine. What I have noticed is that when I exit iTunes SyncServer*32.exe stays running and so I have to kill it before opening iTunes again.
Can anyone help please?
I am on Windows 7 64 bit Home Professional with iTunes 11.2.2.3
And have and iPhone 4s and iPad 4

ITunes 10.7.0.21 Wifi sync with iPhone 4S

Hi,
Sine IOS6 upgrade my iTunes 10.7.0.21 does not detact my iPhone for Wifi sync.
Wifi connection of iPhone works fine, a ping to the IP does also work.
What can I do to solve the problem ?
I connected the iPhone through USB, disabled Wify sync, restart, enabled Wifi sync, restarted and iTunes still does not find the iPhone.
USB sync works.
Is there something I am missing to do ?
Regards,
Jerry

I'm having the same issue, running 10.7 and with both a new iPad and an iPhone 5 (both running iOS 6). Windows 7 64-bit FWIW. Also of note, it was working with only minor hickups on the most recent version of 10.6 (although sometimes iTunes wouldn't "recognize" my iPhone or iPad), and I've told the firewall (Symantec Endpoint Protection) to allow the wifi MAC addresses for both iDevices. Hopefully this is fixed with iTunes 11, although syncing is less and less relevant.

How to set up wifi sync ios 5

hey guys
I have Ios 5 and itunes 10.5 but how do you get it to sync wirelessly as in the sync setting it says it will sync when my mac is available, but its on with itunes open
has any one actually got it to work
thanks

Steps to get it working:
1. Connect device with USB to iTunes
2. Turn on Wifi sync in iTunes - in device Summary > Options page
3. Make sure device is connected to power adapter - otherwise wifi sync does not work
4. After some playing you probably want to turn it off again - it is even slower than the USB sync

(ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly. Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.

(ios5 ipad bugs)I can't get changes of album art, artist, album and other tags to show up in the iPad music player, but they show up correctly in the iTunes device view. Certain random songs do not sync correctly. Wifi sync hasn't worked yet.
I mostly use technology for education and professional audiovisuals and lights.
I don't sync music because I use music from at least 4 different computers. (manually mange music)
I use my iPad to play performance tracks for church and a local gospel group out of our church, Won4Christ.
I chose to buy the iPad because the laptop of one of the group members (dellxps running iTunes) was randomly losing and mixing up music and I wanted a more stable option that was bigger than my iPod touch.
I tried to add some data to music libraries that I previously added to my iPad, but the data only shows up when looking at the device in iTunes.
Wifi sync has not worked on either my laptop or desktop ( both running windows 7 enterprise 64 and newest iTunes) not really a big issue, but very annoying
When browsing through library playlist albums on the iPad, random artwork shows up on playlists with no artwork that you touch while dragging, and it does not go away until you change to another navigation tab and back.
Random songs out of hundreds that I added showed up in iTunes grayed out with a sync circle beside them. Those songs would play back okay on the iPad but were unplayable through the iTunes device view. I had to delete the songs manually through the library along with the playlist and add them again.
These seem to be major stability bugs in the "new" music app and iTunes. My only option right now seems to be to delete the songs that I want to change and re-add them with the changes already applied rather than changing the id3 tags and artwork on the existing music. I hope apple will release updates to resolve these issues.
Thank you for actually making it to the end of this manuscript of annoyances.

Just wondered if anyone had any other suggestions.

IPhone/iTunes Wifi sync doesn't work

Hi guys,
I don't even have hope to solve this problem anymore but I guess I should post this anyway and show apple the crap software they're giving us.
I'm on Lion 10.7.4 (iTunes 10.6.1) and, after upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1.1, my Wifi sync with iTunes stopped working. Out of nowhere. Looking for an answer I started digging on apple foruns and found out there are dozens of threads discussing the problem and literally hundreds of possible solutions. I've tried the following:
- Restart iTunes and iPhone (full power cycle).
- Check the "Sync over Wifi" option on iTunes when iPhone is connected using cable
- Uncheck the "Block iPhone, iPod and iPad from automatically sync" on iTunes > preferences > devices.
- Restart Router
- Reinstalling iTunes
- Restore iPhone
- Move to trash "com.apple.iTunes" and "MobileDevices.framework" files. Restart Mac after.
- Make Airport on Mac and iPhone forget the saved networks and reconfig them
- Open ports on router 123 (all), 3689 (TCP) and 5353 (UDP)
- Disable and enable uPnP on router
- Install Remote app
- Use "Release Liase" option on iPhone under Settings > General > Network > Wifi > Blue Arrow
NONE solved it. I gave up. Apple *****.
Interesting behaviours:
- Remote app doesn't work at all. I can't use it under Home Sharing or that code thing. My phone and Mac simple can't see each other anymore.
- iPhone conects fine using cable. Everything is working and, when I pull out the cable, iPhone vanish from the list. Even with the Wifi option enabled.
So, if any of you can solve it, you will have a place in heaven. And in Apple developing team, probably.
Thank you!

Hi guys,
As I suspected, none of the previous solutions worked. I strongly believe this is some crap in iOS 5.1.1 OR iTunes 10.6.1. More precisely: this is APPLE fault, not something we did wrong or didn't do.
My Wifi sync worked great before this updates (Lion 10.7.2 and iOS 5.0). I can't isolate the problem because I did both updates in less than 24h from one another. Now I'm back to cable and I think I'll still be until Mountain Lion is out.
@rodrigonewtonI sent apple my feedback. Basically everything I wrote here. And I can't connect bluetooth either. Luckily I barely use bluetooth on my Mac.
@ou812ManySushi Lucky you! I'd already tried this without success. What is your iTunes and iOS?
@joejohns90 Doesn't work here, the option is ALWAYS greyed, waiting for my Mac to do something. The only way the "sync over Wifi" button work is pluging the cable. Ironic, isn't it?
Anyway, thanks for the feedbacks guys!

Wifi sync 2 iPhones in one iTunes with different Apple-ID's.

Wifi sync 2 iPhones in one iTunes with different Apple-ID's. My Phone will show up in iTunes, my wife's wont. After plugging my wife's phone into my Win 8.1 pc and check Sync over wifi, I hit the eject button, could this be the reason? Or might it be the different Apple-ID's? If the answer is the first, is there any way tohave iTunes forgetmy wife's phone so I can addit from scratch?

Ello,
I know this, but thats in the past now sadly. The question is: Why wont my wife's iPhone show up in iTunes via wifi?
Is it because I pushed the eject button? And if so, is there any way I can make iTunes forget my wife's iPhone and *** it from scratch again?
Or is it because the phones uses different Apple-ID's?

HT1386 My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?

Hi, My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?
Documents say
Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it....
But I can't see my iPad Mini in iTunes.
And my Ipad (Settings, General, iTunes Wifi Sinc) shows a message :" Sync will resume when xxx(my PC with iTunes) is available "...
Both are in the same network,
Ipad mini is is plugged in to power
. iTunes is open on the computer
what can i Do ???

Hi Skydiver119, and tks for four interest.
I have done exactly as you say, but it does not work for me.
You indicated " Navigate to the info tab and scroll down. There'll be a check box for 'sync over wifi' or something to that effect. Check that box and sync to affirm your choice."
I navigated to Summary tab (not Info Tab) and checked "Sync with this ipad over Wi-Fi"
I disconnect the wire,
and my iPad disappears from my iTunes screen.
in my iPad ->Settings -> General -> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync -> says " Sync will resume when (my PC) is available.
So, I can not sync via wi-fi
I appreciate if you can help me.

ITunes 11 wifi sync problem

Hi all,
I just update to iTunes 11, but since than I'm only able to sync my iPad and iPhone with a cable, the wifi sync option is not working. Both of my iDevices won't find my MacBook
Info:
iPad Wifi 3rd Gen
iPhone 5
MacBook Pro 15" (mid 2011)
Hope that anyone has a solution or Apple comes up with a solution

My itunes wasnt recognizing either my or my husbands phones via wifi either, I took the suggestion of others and reconnected to wifi, didnt work. What ended up working for me was going into network preferences on the mac, and than advanced and deleting my network from the list of preferred networks, turning on wifi on my mac, quitting itunes, turning wifi on my mac back on, reconnecting to my network and opening up itunes. Just synced a song to my iphone via wifi no problem. Odd workaround but hopefully that helps you. I am running osx 10.8.2 and my phones are on ios 6.0.1

ITunes cannot recognize iPhone/iPad via WiFi Sync following motherboard change

Hi folks,
I'm having a problem with synchronising my iPhone (and iPad) to iTunes on Windows 7 Home Premium via WiFi sync.
This never used to be a problem - both devices would be identified by iTunes (occasionally this was sporadic, however a simple WiFi off/on would usually solve the problem).
I have recently upgraded my motherboard and CPU in my Windows 7 PC and after updating some drivers, etc. all of a sudden, I cannot connect to WiFi Sync anymore. I can still synchronise my devices via the cable - i.e. the devices are correctly identified by the PC, but for some reason post the motherboard change, as soon as I pull the plug out of the device, the device disappears from iTunes.
I can confirm that the "Synchronise this device via WiFi sync" tick boxes are checked, and the Machine Name is the same, so my iPhone is still looking for the same PC.
I'm wondering if because of the motherboard change, there is an internal signature that the iPhone/iPad looks for that is no longer the same.
I have tried uninstalling and re-installing iTunes to no avail. I cannot seem to find any solution to this problem - no matter what I do, iTunes will simply not recognise my devices over WiFi anymore.
Welcome any advice or thoughts.
System details:
- Intel i7 2700K (Upgraded from Intel i3 550)
- ASUS P8Z68-M Pro (Upgraded from an ASUS P7H55-M/USB3
- iPhone 4S
- iPad 2
- Windows 7 Home Premium
Cheers,
Mike.

Folks,
I thought I should post a follow up - in case any Apple Support people scour these forums.
The problem seems to have resolved by itself, which is both a good and bad thing.
I made absolutely no changes last night, not even a system reboot, to launch iTunes today and the system miraculously discover both my iPhone 4S and my iPad 2. I think this highlights a broader problem is that the WiFi sync capability is inconsistent and very difficult to troubleshoot. I have no idea why it has all of a sudden started working, especially when I have changed no wireless, networking, firewall or Anti Virus settings.
Anyway thank you to those who had a read, and I wish I could provide more insight on why it has started working all of a sudden, and importantly, what caused it to stop working.
Perhaps it is simply like two people - the new PC and its motherboard needed to 'get to know' the devices before it felt comfortable in allowing a connection .
I have no other more rational explanation!
Cheers all,
Mike.

ITunes wifi sync doesn't work since moving Mac to a new Airport

Hi,
I recently moved my Mac mini which acts as an iTunes 'server' for all the other devices/computers that I have at home from being Ethernet connected to the airport base station in the middle of my network (the Time Capsule described below) to the Airport Extreme at the end of my network. Since moving this, all my devices continue to show in iTunes but if I try and initiate a wifi sync it spends 10 to 20 seconds trying to find the device and then fails (the device then shows "Sync will restart when mini becomes available" or similar). If I completely reboot all my airport base stations it seems to start working for a while. For info, I have tried disabling the Mac mini firewall but it has no impact. Sync works perfectly with a cable and used to work pretty well (but not 100% of the time) before I moved the Mac mini.
Any help or ideas would be really appreciated, my network layout is described below:
My network cosiest of a Sky TV broadband ADSL model & wifi router which provides internet and DHCP using 802.11b/g.
Connected to that via a long Ethernet cable I have a latest gen. Airport Express in a different part of the house creating a 2.4Ghz 802.11n only network with 'Allow this network to be extended' checked.
I then have a 1st gen. Time Capsule extending that network and an Airport Extreme (not the latest version) which extends the network further. If I look at the iPad Airport Utility app I see this network as a long, straight line where each extends the previous.
I have all the Apple Airport devices in 'Bridge mode' so that the Sky device is providing DHCP for the entire network.
I have an old-ish Mac Mini (Intel single core) running a fully updated version of snow leopard (can't update to Lion on a single core) with the latest version of iTunes. I have several iOS 5 devices (fully updated).
Regards,
Phillip.

Just noticed a typo: I moved FROM plugged into the middle of the network to the END of the network and then plugged into that base stations ethernet.
